When drain plugs and gaskets fail, fluids cannot be retained adequately and water infiltration is likely, which leads to corrosion and engine failure. Worse, if you’re performing an outboard oil change, drain plugs and Suzuki oil drain plug gasket can be over-torqued or lost, requiring a replacement. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eKeep your marine engine in optimal condition with PartsVu’s selection of Genuine Suzuki outboard drain plugs and gaskets, including Suzuki oil drain plug gaskets, Suzuki oil plug crush washers, and Suzuki oil change plugs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eWe stock a complete range of Suzuki outboard parts, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/partsvu.com\/collections\/suzuki-outboard-filters-strainers\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSuzuki outboard engine filters\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e, and related tools and products to help you service your Suzuki outboard motor.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePartsVu is also proud to help boaters by providing helpful resources for Suzuki outboard motors:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/partsvu.com\/pages\/suzuki-outboard-engine-oil-capacities-oil-filter-chart\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSuzuki Outboard Engine Oil Capacities \u0026amp; Oil Filter Chart\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/partsvu.com\/pages\/suzuki-outboard-engine-gear-lube-capacity-chart\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSuzuki Outboard Engine Gear Lube Capacity Chart\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/partsvu.com\/blogs\/boating-resources\/suzuki-outboard-100-hour-service-checklist\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSuzuki Outboard 100-Hour Service Checklist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/partsvu.com\/blogs\/boating-resources\/suzuki-outboard-season-breakout-guide\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSuzuki Outboard Season Breakout Guide\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"readMoreTxt\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e \u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuzuki Outboard Drain Plugs \u0026amp; Gaskets FAQ\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I service my Suzuki outboard lower unit? \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSuzuki \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/partsvu.com\/collections\/suzuki-ecstar-lubes-oils-additives\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003elower unit gear lube\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e is drained by removing the lower drain screw first and then the upper plug vent to allow air in.
